A very special release from Perth based collective, MASONIK straddling the media of film, sound and sculpture. Inspired by resampling the wax cylinder recordings of Aleister Crowley created in the early 1900s, Masonik have created a work which echoes the regenerative and destructive sides of the magical artistic process.
Each work comprises a cut vinyl disc containing the 15min soundscape, a blue ray disc containing the 15min film component, the sculptural housing and limited edition publication.
Each vinyl is cut, not pressed, and each sculptural case is created entirely by hand, embossed, editioned and sigilised. This work is at the forefront of new media, cleverly crossing the boundaries of fine art, film, music and performance in a way rarely done.
Only 7 editions have been created for the international market.
AUD $777.00 per edition (only 3 currently remaining)

Artbox presents: Masonik is a multi disciplined, multi-musician audiovisual performance collective . Rising Lotus is the sound testimony of the collaborative project between Masonik and Swiss-Australian visual arts duo Maschi Fontana. Rising Lotus was shown as a part of the 2011 Perth International Arts Festival at the Fremantle Arts Centre from January till March 2011. Encompassing aspects of reductive materialism, minimalism, long frame video and landform sculpture, Maschi Fontana (Tom Muller and Jean-Thomas Vannotti) engaged in both the myths and aesthetics of the various landscapes they encountered while incorporating cosmic symbolism, cult rituals, occult forces and a retro-futuristic feel to their work.
